DEP0001 : Unexpected Error: -1988945906 while deploying Windows UWP app to phone - windows

Exact error:
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error DEP0001 : Unexpected Error: -1988945906 TestApp
What does it mean? It seems it isn't problem with application, it works OK on PC.
Version of OS: 1511, Windows 10 for phones 10.0.10586.164

I've experienced the same problem after updating Visual Studio community to Update 2. Typing in CMD (under admin rights) the following command solved my issue:
net start IpOverUsbSvc
Thanks to Agrgg for a good tip ;)

This kind of error happens very randomly and usually it means there was an issue during the deployment of the app. Things to check:
Developer mode is correctly enabled on phone
Uninstall the app from phone, rebuild solution and then try debug again
Check that the architecture for all projects is set accordingly (ARM for debugging on real device)
Sometimes the VS debugger hangs up, so closing VS and kill from Task Manager all VS processes that are eventually running and restart VS may also help.

I had the same error with deploying onto Windows Phone 8.1 device. In my case the problem was in Windows Phone IP over USB Transport (IpOverUsbSvc) service, which wasn't running. The deployment error disappeared after I'd started the service manually.

I had the same problem.
"net start IpOverUsbSvc" didn't worked for me (throws Access is denied Exception).
I have followed following steps to fix.
Start Run (Windows+R), Type: services.msc
Start/Restart Windows phone IP over USB Transport.

For the RPi, I have RPi3 with WIOT (build 14376) this error happens after failed deployment. Just restart VS and it'll deploy ok.

After trying some of the answers already provided and nothing worked, I fixed the error by simply restarting the phone.
After that the error was gone for me.

I had the same issue, and found that in my case it was occurring while the phone was downloading system updates in the background.
App updates/installations from the app Store were also prevented from downloading/installing.
After the update had finished, all was back to working again.
As Windows Phone 10 doesn't seem to make it obvious that it's downloading updates, maybe worth checking this out if you hit this problem.

I had the same error, solution is here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/ru-ru/library/windows/apps/jj863509(v=vs.105).aspx
Look at Checking BIOS settings required by Hyper-V for Data Execution Prevention. You must select "Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those i select" and in my case application deploys successfully.

For me, it was as simple as unlocking the phone so that the computer would have access to it.

I had this issue as well. None of the answers helped me. IpOverUsbSvc was up and runing, phone reset, system reboot, nothing...
The issue was fixed after a Visual Studio "repair": control panel -> Programs and features -> select VS2015 -> Repair

I got a similar error.
The reason the error occurred for me was because I forgot to add the new splash images in assets after deleting the old ones.
The solution was to add the images. To get the correct image names and sizes, I used this extension for visual studio.

For Windows 10 (desktop) users
I faced this problem after I uninstalled Windows 10 SDK. It deleted the IpOverUsbSvc service from the system.
Solution
Download the Windows 10 SDK .iso installer
Inside it there is Installers folder.
Find Windows IP Over USB-x86_en-us.msi. Install it. (Don't worry if there is no setup window, it installs fast and silently).
I didn't even have to reboot VS2015, it just worked.
Check if the IpOverUsbSvc service is running
Open a Powershell prompt and type Get-Service -Name *USB*
Or go to the Services window. There you should see the IpOverUsbSvc running.

So, I think I get the trick. After plugged in your Windows Mobile device, Windows App Deploy can see W10M device, but once your device goes to lock screen, WPD can not detect it anymore.
You should to plug out and plugin again, with screen unlocked, to make it detectable. (I'm not a really English speaker).

How to enable Hyper-V on a Windows machine?

I'm new to Visual Studio, and I just downloaded the Xamarin package over the weekend. The very first time I ran the Android Emulator, it seemed to work fine. (This was simply running the "Hello World" base-script. Then when I opened the emulator again, it began having Deployment errors.
Deploy Failed
Pressing Yes, yields no results. After some research of my own, I believe that the issue may be because Hyper-V is not running. Enabling it should be simple, but i have tried a few different methods and cannot seem to get it to run. One way I tried was via Powershell: Powershell Feature Name Unknown
Having tried that, I tried to enable it manually via settings: Settings
To my understanding, there should be a few different folders here called "Hyper-V" or something to that effect on top of Hypervision Platform folder. Is this why my emulator isn't running, because I don't have access to the Hyper-V folders, or could something be wrong in Vis Studio itself? Like I said, I'm very new to this software and workflow so any trouble shooting ideas would be appreciated.

Clickonce App Doesn't start with Windows 1803

I have a Clickonce app from Visual Studio 2015 SP3 that is published to the network server and used in-house only. The program works just fine when launched from Visual Studio. It runs just fine on a Windows machine that does not have the 1803 update. But once a machine updates to 1803, the application no longer starts. I get the "Checking for updates..." window then nothing. On a fresh install, I usually get the Smartscreen telling me the program may be dangerous. It doesn't get that far.
I've created the Clickonce from a computer with the 1803 update and the problem still exists.
I've disconnected the machine from the network. The application starts but then has no database access and it needs the database. It's also written to hide buttons that would use the database to prevent users from trying to do things that require it.
I found a workaround (third paragraph) at https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/7cbd16f5-526e-4b0b-a186-3ebf41b7b349/smartscreen-prompt-does-not-show-for-clickonce-app-since-windows-10-update-1803?forum=win10itprogeneral. When I start the application from the directory mentioned, I get the Smartscreen and can tell it to run anyway. Every time I click the desktop icon, it works just fine.
If a new release is published, the new release is downloaded and the program updated, but the Smartscreen no longer appears and the application never starts.
So somewhere between installing the latest update and the Smartscreen, this is failing. Anyone else experiencing this and have an idea as to why?
Yes, frustratingly I also experienced this today. Presumably a security update that they'll release another patch for given this is quite a pain for developers and users of small business apps.
Rather than disable Defender or SmartScreen I chose to add my deployment website to the Trusted Sites in Internet Explorer and that then re-instated the warning dialog and my app updated and ran as before.
Really annoying given the nature of the issue and how long it took to figure out, but at the same time I had to use IE today, which is a rare event nowadays.
This works for me...Warn doesnt warn anymore...
After running in the same problem, I just found that my application was going to halt after a stupid uncaught exception.
Despite the fact that the image below is in Portuguese, Event Viewer shows the right error cause.
In my case, was a corrupted settings file!
It appears as though some subsequent Windows Updates have fixed the issue on several of our PC's that were previously experiencing the issue.
Check for the updates listed here.

Running winver.exe will show you which build you have.

Why does the setup for my ActiveX .exe hang up when "Setup is updating your system"?

I am currently trying to install my vb6 app on a Windows 8.1 computer via TeamViewer (it's kind of like remote desktop). However, the installation always hangs up after all the files are copied and this message is displayed:
Setup is updating your system
We've tried it on our own Win8.1Pro desktop (via Remote Desktop this time) and Win2008Server(both via Remote Desktop), and it installed just fine.
Right now, we've narrowed it down to one culprit - MyProjectInfo.exe the actual ActiveX .exe. Whether it is me trying to run the .exe for the first time to register it to DCOMCNFG or whether it is the setup.exe running the script $(EXESelfRegister) it just freezes up.
What differences should i look for between 1) our win8.1Pro and win2008server and 2) their win8.1? If it some coding/reference/dependency issue, what could be the cause for why it doesn't error in our desktops?
Thank you for all the help.
Uhmm... this is getting embarrassing.
Avast (present in the other person's Win8.1) was blocking MyProjectInfo.exe from running (which is basically what is does with $(EXESelfRegister).
To properly proceed with registering my ActiveEXE program, I had to turn Avast off for a while. And that was that.
This problem may also occur with other anti-virus scanners as well.

Problems with Windows Phone 8.1 emulator

I am having really difficult time to cope up with the windows phone emulator.
My ultimate goal is to deploy my application and sniff http requests through fiddler.
I am on Visual Studio 2013 Update 4 on Windows 8.1
Problems which i face
Sometimes the emulator does not start at all and gets stuck "Window Phone OS is starting ".
Here first i get the message of "Attempting to modify switch settings" info dialog. I clicked on ok. Then i get Error dialog of "Windows Phone emulator is unable to connect to the windows phone operating system" "Object reference not set to an instance of an object "(Internal c# error). I click close and it gets stuck at "Windows Phone OS is starting".
if i get past this problem and my application gets deployed. I cannot connect to internet. Even a link in browser does not open.
Now for the rarest of rare times i am able to connect to internet. I am in no way able to sniff http request.
But sniffing is still my secondary problem, but my first issue is to get the emulator run and connect to internet.
Steps which i have performed to troubleshoot.
Hyper-V as a Windows feature is turned on.
My firewalls have been disabled.
I have removed the virtual machines and switch created by Hyper-V manager and let it be created through Visual Studio.
In network connections, disabled and enabled the vEthernet (Windows Phone emulator switch ).
Have also tried ipconfig/renew.
Have gone through lot of msdn posts, blogs, so questions but the behaviour of emulator is pretty inconsistent.
Is there any way i can get emulator logs/info ?
Any help to direct to me to any direction will be hugely appreciated.
UPDATE
only thing which is consistently working for me right now is disabling Hyper-V windows feature and then enabling it again.
Mind the expensive system restarts also. Then adding my user name to Hyper V admin group and then deploying the application.
So whenever i am changing my network i have to perform these steps. Definitely not sustainable
UPDATE 1
So now i have fiddler also acting as a man in the middle. Followed the steps here http://blogs.msdn.com/b/wsdevsol/archive/2013/06/05/configure-the-windows-phone-8-emulator-to-work-with-fiddler.aspx. Couple of thing to change here are the port number and to give the ip number instead of host name.
Also have fiddler always start first and then the emulator. Fiddler is able to sniff the requests happening in emulator. But my application http requests are not going through which is fine if i run without fiddler. I am currently looking into this.
Best Regards,
Saurav
Have you tried to run Visual Studio as Administrator? Sometimes, the user must have highest privileges to run Hyper-V.

Installation Error 1935

While installing my msi i get the follwing error
Error 1935. An error occurred during the installation of assembly component {98CB24AD-52FB-DB5F-A01F-C8B3B9A1E18E}. HRESULT: 0x800736B3. assembly interface: IAssemblyCacheItem, function: Commit, assembly name: Microsoft.VC80.CRT,type="win32",version="8.0.50727.42",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="x86"
I do carry Microsoft_VC80_CRT_x86.msm in my MSI. But the problem is that i do not see this issue in all machines. This is faced only on a 2012 Windows Virtual machine.
Can anyone please tell me why this error would normally come?
I think you have a corrupted windows O/S. Otherwise it is correct to test on VM's configured with a variety of virgin operating systems that you want to support. Additionally I highly advise to never use this merge module. Instead using a bootstrapper/chainer (WiX Burn, InstallShield Setup Prereqs or Suite Installation ) to install the stand alone versions of the redist from Microsoft. This helps draw a line in the sand between a Microsoft problem and a problem with your installer. It also makes upgrade servicing easier.
I got the same error message on windows 7 (32bit).
This was caused by a failure in windows update for my case.
After that, I cannot install any other program on the computer. I searched from internet and found suggestions made by Microsoft engineers: repair the system from Original Installation disc with "update to latest" choice unchecked.
However, I found another simple solution which also works for my case.
1. Click START>> and type “regedit” to run register editor;
2. Find the following directory in register: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > Control;
3. search by F3 for the key RegistrySizeLimit and double click the DWORD;
4. Change the key value into ffffffff(Hex) or decimal 4294967295, then click OK;
5. restart the computer;
6. run cmd.exe with Administrator's privilege, and type SFC /SCANNOW followed by Enter in command line; this scanning may take several minutes until the status is 100% and finishes;
Then the problem can be fixed!!
I got this error in my Win7x64 VM after I installed .NET Framework 4.5 required by my MSI. I had a fresh OS install with no Windows updates, plus VS2005 SP1. I ran this Microsoft FixIt: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976982/en-us, but it did not help until I restarted the VM. Once I restarted the VM, the error disappeared. I think all I needed was a restart, but I provide the above details in case it was the FixIt that actually fixed it.
On a windows 2016 server, I solved the problem by resetting DCOM security to default
launch dcomcnfg
then set Default Authentication Level to Connect
and Default Impersonation Level to Identify
